Thurgood Marshall was the 96th Justice of the United States Supreme Court and the Court’s first African American Justice. He made lasting contributions to civil rights jurisprudence through his advocacy. Thurgood Marshall was the lead attorney in Brown v. Board of Education, the landmark decision that abolished the archaic standard of “separate but equal” by holding that that laws requiring racial separation are inherently unequal. People from all walks of life have benefitted from Thurgood Marshall’s efforts to increase access to the American dream of equality and fairness.
